Stimulator Black | 3 Pack

A high-floating attractor dry with bold contrast and big-water poise. The Stimulator (Black) pairs a buoyant hair wing and dense, palmered hackle with a dark, leggy profile—throwing a strong silhouette that turns heads in riffles, pocket water, and evening glare.

• When it excels: Late spring through fall; breezy afternoons and low light; riffles, pocket water, foam lines, and cut banks
• Why it works: Hair wing and variant-style hackle keep it riding high; black body maximizes silhouette in mixed clarity; buggy proportions read stonefly/terrestrial
• Pack size: 3 flies
• Targets: Trout (rainbow, brown, brook); opportunistic river smallmouth
• Ready to fish: Durable tie with consistent proportions; floats a light dropper comfortably

How to fish it

Dead-drift across seams and pocket edges with short, accurate casts; add occasional skitters or micro-twitches to wake fish. Run as a dry-dropper with 16–24" of 4–5X to a small nymph or midge. Shorten leaders (7.5–9 ft) in broken water for easier turnover.

Care

Rinse after use and air-dry before boxing. Dress hair and hackle with gel/paste; revive after a dunk or fish with a powder/shake desiccant.
